About Augustine
It is ideal for students in their gap year between high school and university and is equally valuable to those in later stages of life.

Purpose of Our Program
Augustine College aims to restore the Christian tradition of education, one concerned with an integrated formation of the human person. By embracing and exploring the rich tradition of great thinkers and the history of ideas, we reestablish the coherence and clarity vital to the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty.
We seek the wisdom to inform what we know, model how we live, and shape what we desire. We invite you to join us.
What We Study
We immerse our students in the study of philosophy, literature, art, music, science and medicine, politics, scripture, logic and Latin. As we examine the source and chronology of ideas, we are encouraged and challenged to root our faith in reason, and to widen reason through the lens of faith.
